If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I miss the old me,” this episode is for you.


In the thick of motherhood — especially in midlife — it’s so easy to lose touch with who you are beyond the needs, routines, and roles. You love your kids deeply… but maybe you look in the mirror and barely recognise the woman staring back.


In this episode, I’m talking about what identity loss after motherhood really looks like (no sugar-coating), why it’s so common, and — most importantly — how you can start to gently find your way back to you.


You’ll hear:


  • Why disconnection is a normal part of being a Mum (and nothing to be ashamed of)
  • 3 small, powerful ways to reconnect with yourself starting today
  • A moment of mindfulness to help you feel more present, calm, and grounded — even just for a minute



I’m so glad you’re here. You haven’t disappeared — you’ve just been on hold. And it’s time to come back to yourself.
